The recent restructuring of Perityle Benth. (Asteraceae), s.l., warrants a new varietal combination of a narrowly endemic taxon in south-central New Mexico. The previously recognized P. staurophylla (Barneby) Shinners var. homoflora Todsen becomes Laphamia staurophylla Barneby var. homoflora (Todsen) Z. S. Rogers & Spellenb. A brief history of this taxon, a rationale for its recognition, and its status as a rare plant for the state are discussed.
